Hi,
Should be no problem if you follow the guide – https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
Also, the most reliable method to update the theme is by FTP -https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/
In some cases 500 errors were caused by insufficient memory, we recommend a value of 256M if possible. Try increasing it or contact the hosting provider and provide them with this guide – https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-requirements/
If you already tried this, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide FTP or cPanel as well as admin login. We will take a look. Include a link to this topic in the email. Let us know.
Thanks.
Hi Guys,
We use custom fields within the child theme for page.php, loop-single.php and loop-single-1.php as well as a mailchimp signup in footer.php.
Is there an alternative to having to update these each time you release a theme update?

Hi,
Please delete the current version of Newspaper that you have and download again from themefores the newspaper and reinstall it.
Please make sure that you make the update like in our guide -> https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/
If there is still a problem please provide some more details and some screenshots.
Thank you!
@sathana So you want the ad to not be displayed in the homepage, while in the rest of the website it should appear. One solution is to use a cloud header template in the homepage. Edit the homepage and load or create a cloud header template – http://prntscr.com/ninsf7
– http://prntscr.com/ninskg
So you can create or load a cloud header template just in the homepage, what it contains is up to you. It will be displayed just in the homepage. With this functionality each page or template can use a different header, the possibilities are many.
@lpa_admin I can’t say for sure if that will work for sure, if those files will change or not. It is true that the child theme has lost most of it’s usefulness, as it is currently limited to just a few files after the 9.7 update.
We will try to find a way of allowing files from the composer to be modified without doing it directly. If such a way is found we will create documentation for it.
Thanks for reply and information. Now I found the crash maker Plugin. It is the td-api-plugin. I updated theme from 4.7 to 4.8 after deactivating and deleting td-plugins. Td-composer and td-counter is automatically included and active. Amp and mobile theme plugins I installed by newsmag. The last step was activating the td-api plugin. This pugin I didn’t remove. It was inactive, but by one click to activate follows the fatal error. By renaming td-api-plugin on the FTP-Server this plugin was deactivated and the website runs without problems. Top!!!
Sorry, but this gets us every time, then we need to update manually, which of the following plugins is the problem?

Hi,
They appear to be empty indeed, while that is surely not the case. What if you change the post template to a different one? If you made any changes to the post templates, try to temporarily remove them.
Ultimately try to reinstall the theme, by FTP would be better in this case, after the 9.7 update. Delete the old theme and upload the new one. Then update the theme plugins as well.
In case you already tried this, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and allow us admin access so we can take a closer look. Include a link to this topic in the email. Let us know.
Thanks
1. We updated our theme trough FTP and everything worked almost fine except the “Load More” or the “Infinite Loading”. Do you have any tips to make it work again?
2. On the category page, we use a cloud template but on the category siblings part there is a weird white border around it then it goes aways. Do you have any idea how to remove this border? -> https://mybeautifuleurope.com/category/travel/
Thank you again for your support!
Hi,
There were some problems like the one you mention, we fixed them in update 9.7.2. So you could try and update again, to the latest version. Download the theme again from themeforest and install it, there should be no problem anymore.
Due to the changes made to the theme in 9.7 the best method to update in this case, is by FTP. Delete the old theme and upload the new one – https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/
Here is an article about the changes made in 9.7 – https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
Thanks
Hi,
There could be issues like the ones you mention with the single image elements, they may happen when both our composer and Visual composer are active. These will be fixed in the next update.
In the mean time the fix is to download this file – http://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/tdc_map.zip and replace it in the tagDiv composer
– http://prntscr.com/nikwre
The single images will look and function correctly after doing this.
Sorry for this inconvenience, the fix will be included in the next theme update.
Thanks
Hi,
If you are using the child theme for your customization and you make some changes in other file then style.css or functions.php then in Newspaper v9.7 these will not longer work -> https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
If your customization are made only in theme panel, those will not be lost.
-> https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/
Thank you!
Hi,
Please download the theme again from themeforest and install it, by FTP if possible. There have been some fixes and the problem you mention should be fixed now.
Here is a guide if needed – https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/
Thanks
Seems not to work indeed, a stronger code is needed
.td-big-grid-slide.td_block_wrap {
perspective:unset!important;
}
I have tested it on my end, seems to work now. You could give it a try and then check the grid again.
I believe that the “/9” is meant for older versions of IE
– https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8004765/css-9-in-width-property
At the moment I can’t say exactly what and how will change in future theme updates, regarding the legacy functionality. We will improve on the current state or make further modifications. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Let me know if you have more questions.
Hi,
Sorry about that! If you want to make a downgrade to your theme, you can take the 9.6.1 version from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/important-new-update-newspaper-9-7/ Also, if you still need 9.5, you need to send us an email at contact@tagdiv.co where you have to request this version.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please make update to Newspaper v9.7.2 this should fix your problem with wp-admin.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please check this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/important-new-update-newspaper-9-7/
Thank you!
Hi,
I’m using 9.6 and yet to update though. But seems the ajax sign/register pop-up dialogue box is not translating the Sign-in/Login well after editing in the Translation page in the Newspaper Theme Option. The problem is when it ought to show LOGIN FIELD, the text will REGISTER/SIGN-UP and when it ought to show REGISTER/SIGN-UP FIELD, the text will show LOGIN/SING-IN text. And after editing in the Translation, the ajax pop box is not reflecting the change even when I’ve cleared browser cache. How can this be solved please? It’s confusing my site visitors….
Hi Bogdan B,
Thanks for the info.
I was able to update without problems, but I don’t think it was quite the mobile theme have been moved to the td-composer, because whenever I want to update my modifications, I have to be aware of plugins and updates them as a whole without knowing if it is necessary.
Best regards,
Hi,
Thank you for your question. The Newsmag theme update brings a change for the customers that use WP Bakery Page Builder with our Theme:
When you’ll be updating to the Newsmag 4.8 version, you’ll need to activate the tagDiv Composer to keep the Newsmag theme functionality you’ve previously used. Otherwise, you will have basic WordPress functionality, complying with Envato WordPress Requirements – https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements
Please note that activating the tagDiv Composer doesn’t mean that you are required to use our custom page builder on your website. You can use the WP Bakery page builder as you did before the update. We recommended you to do not use the tagDiv Composer and WP Bakery page builders on the same page, because you cannot edit with WP Baker blocks and shortcodes created with tagDiv Composer or vice-versa.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for understanding!
Hi,
Most of the theme files were moved into the tagDiv Composer plugin as per the requirements of Envato: https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements. We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/ Moving forward with such requirements, a child theme will only work with functions.php, and style.css, as there are very few files left in the main theme as Envato, requires all functionality to be added through plugins. I that case, all of your additional customizations will be lost, sorry! Before making any update, we recommend to make a full backup to your database and then, all of your additional customizations should have to be re-added.
Regarding on TD Composer, please notice this the main required plugin of our theme and it has to be enabled if you want to have the all theme functionality. If you do not like it, you can also install the WP Backey and keep both to be enabled.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding.
Thank you!

Hi,
Depends, if you use a default predefined post template style and wish to insert that shortcode, you would have to edit the post template files. After update 9.7 the post template files have been moved in the tagDiv composer plugin – http://prntscr.com/nilv4m Some similar topics to use do_shortcode here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/ads-below-pagination/
For older theme versions a child theme could be used to copy and modify/add code in the single template files – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Or you could use a cloud post template – https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Single
In this case you can add a column text element in the template with the composer, in the location you want, and add the shortcode in it – http://prntscr.com/nilxwn
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
I updated the Newspaper theme to the latest version (used the Envato plugin for this) and updated and re-activated the plugins. But the Composer is no longer working. My website looks fine, but when I’m trying to edit a page with the Composer I’m getting a blank page. Same when trying to create a new page with the Tagdiv Composer. Any solution for this?
Hi Catalin,
Thanks for your reply. Not sure why you are seeing 500 errors on the main site – everything is working fine there.
It is just the category links that we are seeing the issues with, and this was found before we updated the theme with the latest instructions.
Cheers
Neil
